Ballydoyle may have to rethink plans for Derby second favourite Recital

Notions of a glorious reunion between Kieren Fallon and Aidan O’Brien in the
Investec Derby will be dispelled this morning. Fallon, widely linked with
the mount on Recital for O’Brien next week, will ride Native Khan around
Epsom at a promotional event and his trainer, Ed Dunlop, revealed yesterday
that a contract is in place to maintain the partnership.

“Kieren has an agreement with the owner, Mr Araci, to ride Native Khan,”
Dunlop said. “I’m sure he will tell you so himself. He’ll be on board when
we give him a spin round the track at Breakfast With The Stars
